10/19/2008 - Zurich, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - American Venus Williams knocked off Italy's Flavia Pennetta in straight sets Sunday to capture the $600,000 Zurich Open.
The 28-year-old Williams, who outlasted Serbian star Ana Ivanovic 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 on Saturday in the semifinals, was pushed to a first-set tiebreak by Pennetta, but took a 6-0 lead in the tiebreaker and dominated the match the rest of the way. Williams walked away with a 7-6 (7-1), 6-2 victory and took home $95,500 for her work.
Williams, who converted on 2-of-4 break-point chances, collected six aces to zero for Pennetta, who left Zurich with $51,000 as the runner-up. The 26-year- old Pennetta committed four double-faults in the loss to Williams and did not break Williams' serve during the match.
Pennetta earned a 6-3, 7-6 (8-6) victory over Anabel Medina Garrigues in the semis of this event. She had a very solid showing in Zurich, as she also eliminated reigning world No. 1 and U.S. Open runner-up Jelena Jankovic on Thursday.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
